2 Commissioners Allegedly Quit Otti’s Govt
From CHINEDU NWADIKE, Aba
Two members of the Abia State Executive Council have dumped the Governor Alex Otti-led government for undisclosed reasons.
The governor had about two months ago, suspended the Commissioner for Health, Ngozi Okoronkwo, from office.
Otti had also relieved his Chief Press Secretary, Kazie Ukoha, of his appointment without giving any reason.
The sacked Commissioners were that of Science and Technology, Chima Oriaku; and Agriculture, Professor (Mrs.) Monica Ironkwe.
No reason was given for their sack, although the Chief Press Secretary (CPS) to the Governor, Ukoha Njoku Aloha, said the affected commissioners were not booted out of office, but resigned.
Aloha, however, did not give the reason for their resignation.
